With the success of films like Knives Out (2019), the murder mystery genre in television and film appears to be resurrecting. The plot of Mike Weiss and Heidi Cole McAdams’ Hulu television series Death and Other Details centers on a locked-room murder that occurs on a lavish cruise liner.
The show centers on Imogen Scott, a lady who becomes the only suspect in a murder case and teams up with renowned investigator Rufus Coteworth to identify the true murderer. In addition to Violett Beane, Linda Emond, Jayne Atkinson, Lauren Patten, David Marshall Grant, and others, Mandy Patinkin plays the show’s primary detective.
